Two straight days with a post about Chris Cornell? Stay tuned for tomorrow, when we discuss Mother Love Bone b-sides. Anyway, Pearl Jam Week kicked off last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon with an acoustic performance of “Footsteps” from the Avett Brothers and Cornell, or as they’re now known, the Corn Bros.

i’m gonna be “that guy” here…. you may also recognize this tune as “times of trouble” from the temple of the dog album (temple of the dog being made up of cornell and current day pearl jam). stone gossard wrote the music and both cornell and vedder wrote seperate lyrics for it. cornell’s version ended up on the temple of the dog album, and vedder’s as a pearl jam b-side.

so, while this is technically a cover, it’s a song cornell is intimately familiar and intertwined with.
